i'm writing a career handbook for eduloan, and i have reached, now, the medical categories. and, of course, for some reason unknown, under occupations, there are homeopath (?), acupuncturist, herbalist,... and i cannot, in my mind, add these as actual careers?i allready had to add 'spiritual leader', which i was cringing through.surely, if i added those as actual careers, then i can put reiki master, reflexologist, sangoma, psychic.....

we're living in a capatilist country, if you can make money doing it, its considered a career. As a matter of interest, you can register as a psychic at some institution or another (I didnt pay all that much attention) and its considered a legitimate job description on your tax return.

the careers are lumped under subject choices, so under natural sciences, medical stuff comes up a lot.luckily, there is only room for about 10 careers in each subject field, so i cleverly made other careers sound fabulous, so that there is no room for herbalist/homeopath/acupuncturist. in my opinion, if you cant study it at a university, get a degree, and call yourself doctor what-have-you, then it's not medicine.we have moved too far in medicine and understanding the human body, for some random oke to have the power to poke around with my health.

and then, if they are legit according to this institution, wil my medical aid cover this, as it does a proper psychologist?

Our company's medical aid will pay for a visit to a Sangoma... so I guess its just a sidestep away from paying for a psychic, maybe next year, there's probably a delegation of psychics, who, right this moment, are waving a handful of documents which will give them access to asking medical aid rates for their sittings....
